Wonderful comments Hal! I am a fairly well-educated women way over the age of 50 or 60, I would I could love to kick her in the ass! I can still do it!!

Obama can kill her with kindness and she will never know what hit her! Good points all!

"This is probably the last group of Americans that really care about common courtesy. "

Hal -- The article was great except for the last part. I would be willing to say that women of this group care more about commom courtesy than others which is why Hillary is losing support in this group as well.

I understand why women of this age like Hillary. I like Hillary. But I won't vote for her because I believe she is too polarizing of a figure and I believe that I have been proven repeatedly correct in that conclusion.

I just think women my age have seen how badly men have F****D up our govt and think a woman can do a better job. They are probably right.

I think if Hillary was any other woman, it would be a totally different race. But with the last name Clinton and Bill as a husband, I just don't think she is the right woman for the job at this time in our country's history.

...believes she is entitled to be the next president.

That pretty much says it all. No one thought that she moved to NY to run for the Senate because she felt a calling to represent NY. It has always been about becoming president.

pollchecker,

Good point, I made a few changes to the end of the column. Thanks.

It's really interesting that Bill and Hill - to date - have been out-politicked by Obama. They were the consummate pols... BUT - he has really shown them up. Except for his politics, I'm gleeful !

Thanks Hal for the astute observation concerning Newton's third law relative to the Hillary vs. Obama struggle which is also linked to the martial and extended psychological warfare arts of judo.

Regardless of what techniques he uses, all I care is that he prevails and sends "billary" to the ashbin of political history!

"The use of jū in each of these words is an explicit reference to the martial arts principle of the "soft method" (柔法, jūhō?). The soft method is characterized by the indirect application of force to defeat an opponent. More specifically, it is the principle of using one's opponent's strength against him and adapting well to changing circumstances. For example, if the attacker was to push against his opponent he would find his opponent stepping to the side and allowing his momentum (often with the aid of a foot to trip him up) to throw him forwards (the inverse being true for pulling."...extract from Wiki article

Go Obama...Go...!

Carl,

Good example. I would go further and specifically suggest Aikido as a martial arts metaphor:

... a synthesis of martial studies, philosophy, and religious
beliefs. Aikido is often translated as "the Way of unifying (with) life energy"l or as "the Way of harmonious spirit."
Ueshiba's (the person who devloped it) goal was to create an art that practitioners could use to
defend themselves while also protecting their attacker from injury.
Aikido techniques are normally performed by "blending" with the
motion of the attacker, rather than directly opposing the attack. The
aikidoka (aikido practitioner) redirects the attacker's momentum, using minimum effort, with various types of throws or joint locks.

Newton's Third Law was the Law of Kharma as applied to physical structures. It's also the Law of Gravity, in a more general formulation. Do Unto Others, Reap what ye Sow, the Law of Kharma, it's all the same. We receive exactly what we give, which is why Hillary is probably toast. The amazing thing about Kharma is the timing, however. Sometimes the interest carries a balloon-payment many years after the fact! I think it's probably not accidental that Hillary's fall seems to coincide with the very peak of her arrogance. Gravity wins, again!

The law of gravity is one that I totally support. Maybe we should add it to the Constitution with an Amendment.

You're correct again.
